I don’t have driving license but I did the calculation.

Tldr: repair + depreciation cost per year are equal to cheapest car leasing per month.

So I have more expensive bike in the range of 2000€ (including rack, panniers and some other stuff). On the second hand market similar bikes go for 1400€ (even older ones in this category), I count depreciation for 10 years so 60€/year (beat this with car).

Repairs/maintenance is around 100-200€ for me but I easily ride 10 000 km/year on it in every condition and surface.

I basically save for new bike per year even with public transport tickets counted in.

I’m really happy with Sqlab saddle, I don’t ride with padding and it wasn’t a problem on my bikepacking trips. Leather Brooks saddles are good option too but they need 1000km to “mold” to your butt.

The glimpse:

Yes for the basic thing most people buy it and it is this fucked up. Also it uses Google maps, they are bit useless for cycling.

I have more mapping apps and all of them have offline planning.

Sorry not native speaker, thanks for correction.

It didn’t worked.

Thanks I give it a try, problem for me is that I need to plan route and then put it in cyclocomputer. I don’t need any other bs.

I would like to find alternative to Garmin app. It is bad if you don’t want to use the cloud features, also you can’t plan routes without internet connection like wtf that’s the only reason I bought it for.

I am different kind of cyclist…

I am not familiar with your 00x designation.

It is nice app but the problem is it doesn’t show Czech hiking and cycling routes by default. I didn’t figured out how to enable them.

It will take some time before the algorithm picks it up.

Mastodon admin from server I have an account just added deepl translation plug-in and said that it is soo easy to translate that he doesn’t know if it is necessary to decide in which language he will post (cz or eng). So yeah I also think it isn’t a problem.

It is classic Russian stand, they like to make shit like that, pretty recently they were saying that 1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia was provoked by us. Which is obvious bs multiple high officials from Russia apologized for it, said it was a mistake (lol even communists who understood what it was about were sorry).

It depends, each country has something to offer. I really like to go somewhere where you just don’t expect something/you have completely wrong picture about it. Just nice surprise every time you travel there. Also for travel it has to have the “I want to go there” factor, when I say to someone that USA is for me no go country because of this they usually don’t understand.

I would like to travel across the Europe, each country is interesting, even Russia (but visit Russia before Russia visits you and I just don’t want to go there now).

From Asia there are few interesting countries, Taiwan and South Korea.

On Africa I just don’t know, certainly I would like to go to Morocco, but some other countries there are on the list.

Australia and New Zealand are also high on the “I want to go there” index.

America’s - Canada, Mexico and Argentina

For living I just don’t know.

My boss will probably sign me to amateur race in few months.

He will be selling beer somewhere on route and it will be just for fun and my first “race”. It is more like 130km trip with some timed parts for pros and wineries and other “distractions” for the normal people.

That’s still lot of space, you can put bath or shower in front of it.

I don’t have a need for riding in night I can choose quite or separated roads. But I have to say there is something about it I like. Unfortunately I usually do it only when I am in rush to get to bed/somewhere where I needed to be few hours ago (because some unexpected delays on route).

1-2 months, by law after 1 month there has to be parliament meeting that gives majority support to government, if it don’t give support then another party gets to make government, after that another election.

It depends on the situation, usually the coalition potential is known in advance so it is usually quick.

It looks nice, but second hand device with technology that is only few generations old. I would only now consider buying it new.
